A fifth video of Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber was released by Watchdog.com on Friday. It shows his continued lack of respect for the average American. This time he's not calling all Americans stupid, or saying the Cadillac Tax was written to fool the economically illiterate. This time he is attacking one voter who sent the Vermont House Health Care Committee a letter stating his concerns about Obamacare. Gruber's response to the letter was a snarky,“Was this written by my adolescent children by any chance?"
In the video (above) Feb 18, 2011 meeting of the Vermont House Representatives committee, Gruber listens to Democratic committee Chairman Mark Larson read a letter from a Vermont citizen who is concerned that Obamacare will lead to “ballooning costs, increased taxes and bureaucratic outrages,” among other things.
After Larson finishes reading the Vermonter's letter, Gruber said mockingly, “Was this written by my adolescent children by any chance?” The room erupted in laughter.
As Watchdog reports, the letter writer and target of Gruber's snarky comment was a two-term Vermont State Senator and advisor to President Reagan:
"It was actually written by a former senior policy adviser in the White House who knew something about health care systems,” said John McClaughry, a two-term Vermont state senator and adviser to President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s.
McClaughry, who wrote the comment in an op-ed weeks before the 2011 committee meeting, told Vermont Watchdog he did not know Gruber made the condescending insult. However, he was aware of other videos discovered this week in which Gruber boasted of writing deceptive policies to trick “stupid” American voters.
“No one should trust this man. … Based on the rest of the stuff that’s come out on the videos, nobody can trust this guy. He has no use for transparency, he thinks people are stupid, and he’ll do anything to get this thing through and pocket his $400,000. That’s not in the interest of the people of Vermont,” McClaughry said.
>> “Was this written by my adolescent children by any chance?”
Wouldn’t that be “cowritten”?
Bizarre little man - in another recent tape he complains that the ACA is complicated, and “what it takes two sentences to explain can be destroyed by a one sentence lie by its opponents” - in other words he claims that the program which was itself conceived and fabricated out of lies and purposely made complicated so that the public couldn’t see through those lies would be damaged if the public in fact did see through the lies and spoke the truth about what they saw - sounds remarkably like Orwell’s Newspeak to me - truth is lies and lies are truth - one has to wonder about the mental health of this a$$.......

Not a single Republican senator or Congressman voted in favor of that monstrosity called Obamacare. It must be make perfectly clear that democrat Phd com man Gruber, called stupid not all the American voters, but just the democrat voters that put the “Liar in Chief” in the White House, in spite of his Marxist anti-American back ground, and all the Democrats legislators co-conspirators with the president and the MSM in the greatest deception against the American people in the history of the United States.
